PRP

PRP uses your body's own growth factors for skin rejuvenation. By concentrating platelets from a simple blood draw, the treatment stimulates collagen production and improves skin texture, tone, and firmness — without synthetic products.

Can PRP help with hair loss?

Yes. Scalp PRP is an evidence-based treatment for androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss). It stimulates dormant hair follicles and improves scalp health.
